DISCOURSE by David Howarth
The concept of discourse is used in a variety of disciplines in the humanities and social sciences. By drawing upon existing empirical accounts, this book shows how this conception of discourse theory is used to analyse central issues in social science research.
"Howarth's comprehensive yet user-friendly introduction not only sharply sketches the basic aspects of the concept of discourse, but also subjects various discourse approaches to a methodical reflection that proposes new possibilities for research" - Jan Matonoha
